The event and the Davos Klosters region were extremely well received by the international field of participants: "These are the best trails I've ever ridden!" "I can't say which stage I liked best - they were all gems!" Or: "The best mountain bike event I've ever experienced!" This was the unanimous opinion of the almost 200 teams of two from 14 nations from Europe and overseas, who completed 16 stages, i.e. measured downhill stages, on their bikes over the three days from September 20 to 22.

Racing teams in the lead

As expected, the race in the men's category was decided between the experienced enduro riders right from the start. Victory ultimately went to the Wheeler iXS team with Stefan Peter and Tim Bratschi with a combined race time of 1:22.56. Just under two minutes behind them were the former downhill and cross-country pros, Nick Beer and Daniel Eymann from the "BiXS-mtbeer Bikeschule&Solution" team. In third place was the "VELOBUDE - RSF" team with Fabian Buschor and Martin Kägi, who also have their roots in downhill riding.

In the mixed category, there was a close duel over three days, which was won by the local "Sertig Bikers" with Karl Bühler and Andrea Kuster. In the end, they finished in 1:43.30 hours, just 20 seconds ahead of the "one80shop.ch" team with Carla Coester and Dominic Schuppli. The AP team with Ivan Püntener and Andrea Arnold took third place.

The race is also exciting in the women's category. Team Aquarius with Andrea Wiederkehr and Nadja Sommer were ahead for the first two days. However, they let Anja Rohrer and Priska Durrer from the "Sweet As" team snatch victory away from them on Saturday. Third place went to the Fusion World riders Jeanette Mayr and Myriam Hähne.

A mountain bike festival in a class of its own

The organizing committee drew a thoroughly positive conclusion: "Our aim was to show experienced mountain bikers from all over the world the most beautiful trails in the destination of Davos Klosters in the best of company," summarizes Britta Wild. "We more than succeeded: it was a mountain bike festival in a class of its own!" Race director Michi Wild was also extremely satisfied after the event: "At the first edition last year, the amount of snow made the organization considerably more difficult. This year, despite some morning fog on Saturday, the weather was great and many helpers were there for the second time and knew how it works. Everything went wonderfully, we had no major incidents and the atmosphere was always great!" The organizing committee would like to thank the approximately 100 volunteers, without whom the event would not have been possible. This also includes the Davos Klosters mountain railroads, whose dense network of transport options made an enduro event like this possible in the first place.

The third edition will take place from Thursday to Saturday, September 19 to 21, 2019, once again at Bolgen Plaza in Davos.
